Cooking Class: Splendid Southern French Feast
You’ll learn the process of making divine French food — from the country’s southeastern region — in this hands-on cooking class with Chef Burcu. You’ll begin by preparing crispy sole fillets, followed by green tagliatelle pasta, which you’ll craft from scratch. Chef Burcu will teach you how to color pasta using the chlorophyll from green, leafy vegetables. After cooking the tagliatelle, you’ll garnish the sole fillets with tomatoes, lemon, capers and melted butter. To finish, you’ll whip up a light and creamy dessert drizzled in franboise sauce.

Excellent chef and great teacher. Explained the little things that the books and many courses leave out. Patiently answered all of my many questions. Then I got to enjoy a great meal. All costing not much more than going out to an inferior dinner. I highly recommend her sessions.

Amazing experience, I highly recommend it! Chef Burcu is very welcoming and passionate about her specialty cuisines. She taught me how to make a savory creamy red lentil soup that is perfect for the upcoming fall season. I would definitely take one of her classes once again.
